About Not Without Sorcery
Theodore Sturgeon’s first short story collection was Without Sorcery, a handsome hardcover published in 1948 with an introduction by Ray Bradbury. As you can imagine, it’s a tough book to find these days, even for collectors.<br><br>The paperback edition, released 13 long years later, dropped five stories and the introduction, and was re-titled Not Without Sorcery. It became Sturgeon’s tenth collection and was released in two editions, from Ballantine (in 1961, with a rather drab cover by an unknown artist) and Del Rey (in 1975, with a far more interesting cover from artist Darrell K. Sweet.) 1975 was the last time the book saw a mass market edition; it remained out of print for 35 years, until Kessinger Publishing did a facsimile reprint edition in 2010.<br><br>Sturgeon was a Campbell writer through and through, and all eight stories in Not Without Sorcery appeared in the two pulp magazines John W. Campbell edited: Astounding Science Fiction, and its sister magazine Unknown Worlds. The stories were published over a two-year period, 1939-1941. I’ve assembled some of the original covers below, because I can never resist an excuse to showcase pulp magazines.<br><br>The eight tales in Not Without Sorcery include a mix of fantasy and science fiction, and several of Theodore Sturgeon’s most popular stories, including the classic horror tale “It” (from the August 1940 issue of Unknown), and both “Ether Breather” and its sequel, “Butyl and the Breather” (from Astounding).<br><br> Eight great tales of wonder, whimsy and weird events…<br><br> It<br> It was never born, but it lived.
